Thysanophrys Arenicola
''Thysanophrys'' is a genus of marine, demersal ray-finned fish belonging to the family Platycephalidae. These fishes are native to the Indian Ocean and the western Pacific Ocean. Taxonomy ''Thysanophrys'' was first formally proposed as a genus in 1898 by the Australian ichthyologist James Douglas Ogilby with ''Platycephalus cirronasus'', which had been described from Botany Bay in New South Wales in 1848 by John Richardson, as its type species. This genus is classified within the family Playtcephalidae, the flatheads which the 5th edition of ''Fishes of the World'' classifies within the suborder Platycephaloidei in the order Scorpaeniformes. Etymology ''Thysanophrys'' is a combination of ''thysanos'', meaning "fringe", and ''ophrys'', which means "eyebrow", an allusion to the series of dermal appendages above the eye of ''T. cirronasus''. Species ''Thysanophrys'' contains 10 species: * '' Thysanophrys armata'' ( Fowler, 1938) * '' Thysanophrys celebica'' (Bleeker, 1855) ...

Suborder
Order ( la, ordo) is one of the eight major hierarchical taxonomic ranks in Linnaean taxonomy. It is classified between family and class. In biological classification, the order is a taxonomic rank used in the classification of organisms and recognized by the nomenclature codes. An immediately higher rank, superorder, is sometimes added directly above order, with suborder directly beneath order. An order can also be defined as a group of related families. What does and does not belong to each order is determined by a taxonomist, as is whether a particular order should be recognized at all. Often there is no exact agreement, with different taxonomists each taking a different position. There are no hard rules that a taxonomist needs to follow in describing or recognizing an order. Some taxa are accepted almost universally, while others are recognized only rarely. The name of an order is usually written with a capital letter. For some groups of organisms, their orders may follow ...
